Intelligence can be measured in many ways. There is emotional intelligence -- that intelligence that warns you against telling your best friend's boyfriend what you really think of him. "Street-smarts" -- that type of intelligence that tells you "no, no, you really shouldn't walk down that dark alley in an unfamiliar city with your money hanging out of your pocket". There is business intelligence -- that type of savvy that lets you know just how much you can ask for in that major business deal. However, the type of intelligence that most people rely on as a barometer of overall brain power, is your IQ, your ability to think logically and problem solve. At some point during your school years, you probably took an IQ test. College entrance exams test your academic knowledge, but IQ tests attempt to quantify how intelligently you think. People with above average IQs can quite literally seem to know it all. What they don't know out right, they can often puzzle out fairly easily. Like with most gifts, having a high IQ can be used for good or ill. Here is a list of the 10 Most Intelligent People in the World based on IQ.
